What Is Dementia
Information may not be reliable

10/7/2021
Dementia can be described as a general decline in mental capacity which is serious enough to interfere significantly with normal daily living.

Dementia can be described as a general decline in mental capacity which is serious enough to interfere significantly with normal daily living. Dementia may affect anyone, at any age. However, it tends to affect older people who have already reached middle age. Dementia can be mild, moderate or severe. The severity of the symptoms is based on the type of dementia, it affects and the amount of time the person has been experiencing it. Dementia, however, can also affect people who are in their twenties, thirties and forties.

Dementia can be divided into two types: vascular and non-vascular. Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one such type of dementia that can lead to several symptoms of forgetfulness, such as being unable to recall names or where you place things. This is caused by the death of brain cells called neurons. Another common cause of dementia in the elderly is called Alzheimer's disease, or a form of dementia caused by the degeneration of brain cells. In this condition, the victim's ability to think and remember things are gradually lost. Dementia that results from brain injuries or stroke is another matter altogether.

Dementia can be caused by a variety of medical conditions and can manifest in many different ways. The symptoms vary according to the condition. A person can get help with dementia by visiting his or her doctor to determine the underlying cause. Often, the doctor will prescribe anti-inflammatory drugs or other drugs that will help get rid of some of the symptoms of the problem. These medications will usually be taken for a short term, until the doctor feels that the patient is getting better. They are most effective when taken early in the course of dementia.

If there is no concrete reason for the symptoms of dementia, then the first thing to do is to get help with depression. Many people will be diagnosed with depression at some point in their lives. Some will not get help with dementia until they have reached the later stages of the condition. If you are feeling depressed or have any family history of depression, then you should definitely seek treatment for it. You will need to undergo therapy and perhaps be prescribed medications to help you deal with the symptoms of dementia.

Some patients will experience more severe symptoms of depression than others. In this case, therapy and medications will be the first line of defense. These will only prove to be helpful if the patient also goes through therapy. The cognitive therapy helps the brain to adjust to changes within it and cope with new information. The medication is usually intended to reduce the amount of damage caused by the brain cells as it tries to fight against the depression.

If you suspect that your loved one is suffering from symptoms of dementia, then the first thing you should do is go and see a doctor. If the symptoms are recent, then you might want to see a neurologist instead. A neurologist will be able to perform imaging tests to help them diagnose the symptoms of depression and memory loss. With these tests, they will be better prepared to treat the condition.
